SHANGHAI stocks rose in the morning session on speculation that the government may allow inflow of foreign capital to ease liquidity concerns.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index went up 1.45 percent, or 35.82 points, to close at 2511.24. Turnover expanded to 56.8 billion yuan (US$ 8.4 billion) from yesterday's 34 billion yuan.
The Shenzhen Composite Index, which covers the smaller mainland exchange, gained 1.89 percent to 1011.8 points.
The central bank of China has signed an agreement with Hong Kong government to allow banks in Hong Kong to provide a full range of yuan-related services for financial institutions.
This was seen as a progress towards the possibility for mainland brokerages to raise funds in Hong Kong to trade A shares.
China may also allow qualified foreign institutional investors, or QFIIs, to use as much as 10 percent of approved investment quotas to trade stock-index futures, the China Securities Journal reporter today, citing an unidentified person.
Energy-related stocks led the gainers after statistics from the International Energy Agency showed that China has surpassed the US as the world's largest energy consumer.
China Shenhua Energy Co, the nation's largest coal producer, rose 1.7 percent to 22.78 yuan. Datong Coal Industry Co climbed 8 percent to 31.26 yuan. PetroChina, the biggest index component, added 10.35 to 10.35 yuan. Datang International Power Generation Co edged up 0.59 percent to 6.86 yuan.
Property developers picked up after media reports said that supply of homes may increase in the second half. Gemdale Real Estate Corp rose 1.83 percent to 6.68 yuan. China Vanke added 1.55 percent to 7.86 yuan. Poly Real Estate (Group) Co rose 2.67 percent to 11.90 yuan.
